The Aeronautical Chart Users’ Guide is a 50MB 137-page PDF document. It is recommended that you download and save this publication, and also re-visit this FAA page often for updates.

FAA Risk Management Handbook-Current
https://www.faa.gov/sites/faa.gov/files/2022-06/risk_management_handbook_2A.pdf
This is the current 2022 FAA Risk Management Handbook which provides information to help remote pilots recognize and manage risk. This handbook provides a higher level of training to the remote pilot in command to better understand the aviation environment and become a better pilot and also provides key elements of risk decision-making to determine if the risk is justified and how to manage risks as well.

Like with many of these handbook downloads, not all of the information contained within each book applies to the part 107 exam. This is why it can be beneficial to subscribe to our FAA Remote Pilot Drone Courses as out courses sort through all of this information and only provide you with the materials required to pass the part 107 aeronautical exam.
